Chapter 800: Chapter 800: Popular with Everyone
Yunyi linked arms with Geng Erhong, naturally she couldn’t tell the truth: "You can’t distance yourself from me because of this. The reason why I didn’t tell you was that earlier I ran into someone from Songling Village in the county, and after asking around, I found out you and Cheng Hongjun had gone back to meet the parents."
Geng Erhong blushed upon hearing Yunyi mention Cheng Hongjun: "I went back with him but returned after only a few days."
Anyway, finally the previous topic was diverted: "So, are you guys about to have some good news?"
Geng Erhong glanced in the direction of Cheng Hongjun and nodded lightly: "We’re not getting any younger and since it seems hopeless to return to the city, we’re thinking of starting a family in the countryside."
Thinking of the news about the college entrance exam being reinstated, Geng Erhong suddenly changed the subject: "Who knew just a few days after we got back, the news of the exam’s reinstatement would come, so the marriage plans have to be put on hold."
Yunyi teased her: "Anyway, Jin City and Shi City aren’t too far apart, there’s no rush. You can wait until you both get into your desired universities and then plan the wedding."
Geng Erhong nodded: "That’s what we’re thinking too."
Since Huo Jingrui was around, they didn’t go into the female zhiqing’s room, but stayed in the kitchen for a while.
Yunyi, not wanting to interrupt their study, chatted briefly and handed Geng Erhong some prepared study materials: "This is for you. I hope it helps you both."
When Geng Erhong saw what was in the bag, she screamed excitedly and hugged Yunyi with a leap: "Yunyi, you’re an amazing friend, thank you so much, really, thank you!"
Even Cheng Hongjun and Liu Chenglin, who were accompanying, were thrilled.
Yunyi didn’t stay long: "Alright, we gotta go, study hard."
Geng Erhong wanted to invite them to a meal, but Yunyi declined, and they reluctantly escorted them to the big gate.
Remembering something, Geng Erhong ran back: "Yunyi, wait a moment."
She came out again with a piece of paper in hand: "Here’s my home address in Jin City and Cheng Hongjun’s home address in Shi City."
Saying this, she handed over the notebook in her other hand: "Leave me an address too, just in case I visit Beijing to hang out with you."
Yunyi left the address of the Chu Family, as she wasn’t in a position to leave the Huo Family’s address.
Declining the offer for Geng Erhong and the others to send them off, they returned the way they came, and from afar saw Aunt Guihua, with an apron, heading towards the Zhiqing Point.
Yunyi hastened her steps to greet her: "Aunt, what brings you here personally?"
Aunt Guihua wiped her hands on her apron: "It’s a rare occasion to come back to the village, I have to at least go to your house for a meal. Earlier, I met your cousin and she mentioned you’re getting married. I was thinking of finding a chance to visit you in the city.
But my brother was building his house a few days back, so we all went to help, and that plan got shelved. Today, no matter what, you have to come to my house and eat before leaving."
Yunyi felt a bit troubled but couldn’t resist Aunt Guihua’s enthusiasm, especially when she talked about it so openly; it was hard to refuse.
As they walked back, they saw Mao Dan’s mother, Du Yuhua, standing not far away.
Before they could say anything, Du Yuhua spoke: "Looks like I’m late, never mind, I won’t compete with Aunt Guihua; once my dish is ready, I’ll bring some over to add to the meal."
Huo Jingrui hadn’t expected his wife to have such good relations in Songling Village, and couldn’t help but smile softly.
Just as Yunyi raised her hand to say something, Mao Dan’s mother, Du Yuhua, had already turned and run back home.
